The boots looks nice but i'm pretty tired of the yeezys 350 because I see 10+ of them just by talking a walk in one of the main streets.

>>13050814
Where do you live out of curiosity?

350s are honestly the worst Yeezy shoes. Not just because they're the most popular. They're not bad, but I don't know all the stupid colorways seem out of place with the Kanye's overall aesthetic and color palette.

750s are very nice though.

>>13050818
Copenhagen. Every 12 year old kid got a pair of yeezys here.

>>13050822
Same in some areas of Helsinki. Light down jacket, jeans or adidas pants, and yeezys or other runners is like a uniform for under 16 year olds

>>13050805
This one might be regional but....

Tall (Stance) socks and shorts don't look good

>>13050839
I think thats American specialty of stupidity. I see socks and sandals with shorts etc, but calf length sports socks and shorts is something I've only seen done by burgers

I unironically like Miuccia Prada

The only real streetwear brand I wear is Y3 and its more high end athleisure than streetwear.

Pic related is next on the list

I whole heartedly think RO is ugly and really cant understand the mentality of people hyping his shoes. To each their own but really, I have not seen one pic of someone making Baskets, Ramones,or even the Mastodons look good.

Wearing a pair of onyx season 3 boots right now. I love them, they look great and are super comfortable and easy to put on/take off. They've always been a grail for me, because I love the casual/minimal military look

>unpopular opinion
I think Represent Clo is a great brand who make very high quality garments and have a great style.

>>13052362
>high quality
>holes in pants
Are you mentally deficient?

Rick Owens is one of the best designers out there, in my opinion.

What makes this so unpopular is the fact that I strongly dislike: 90% of his sneakers (including Ramones, and Geos), his drop crotch pants, mastodon trousers, and pretty much most things you'd see somebody wearing RO have on.

>>13052371
Are you? Distressing has nothing to do with the actual quality of the garment...their jeans are super nice and comparable to the quality of diesel jeans.
T: I own both.

Sometimes, buying replicas/fakes is much more sensible, and the majority of people often cannot tell the difference between a well made replica and the original

Superdry make really nice hoodies and comfy joggers and Idgaf

>>13052385
>the rips and holes in a new pair of pants make them better and are worth the extra money
Please tell me you don't actually believe this

>>13052385
>super nice
>diesel jeans
There is another unpopular opinion

>>13052408
yea he's just full of them

>>13050805
I think most "fashion" on this board is uninspired drivel that seeks to create a feeling rather than look good. Most of /fa/ are ugly goblins who believe fashion will solve their hideousness. The hate directed towards preppy fashion stems from insecurity and hatred of wealth, which is ironic, because most of the non-prep fashion on this board is incredibly expensive, to the point of ridiculousness. Also Rick and buzzcuts look awful. Being skinny is better than being fat, but being well built is better than being skinny. Political fashion is ok but it gets annoying when people take it personally. Too many threads are filled with 1-2 pictures and then 90% arguing about pictures. Mods should remove threads that get off topic, like the broken mirror thread. "Aesthetic" pictures only look good because of the filter that the camera applied. There is too much shitposting on this board, go to /bant/ for that. Saint Laurent and most runway fashion looks like absolute shit in real life. Gay stuff should be kept in its own general.

>>13052402
That's not what I think, or what I'm trying to convey. You might actually be autistic

>>13052362
>very high quality garments
Not even possible given their price range and margins.

>great style
They don't even have a "style" to begin with : all they do is ripoff whatever actual designer brand is popular, just like a more pricey version of Zara.

You should lurk more if you were not baiting.

>>13052385
>Diesel jeans
>High quality
You are definitely baiting.

>>13052308
That's not unpopular here. /fa/ hates athleisure and streetwear except for y-3. Those boots are cool but I am picturing crInge if you are a white boy.

Disagree with you on Rick overall. I have Geos and I don't get all the memes. I sized down half size. They are very comfortable don't hurt my feet and don't look like clown shoes. Surprised at the wearability.

>>13052344
Season 3 is peak Yeezy season thus far. I have the pink/orange oversize tee from season 3 and I love it. Honestly one of my favorite fits is that tee with black pants and either Geos or brown 750s. Season 5 sucked so hopefully 6 will be better. Not super into Yeezy, a lot of times wannabe Helmut Lang, but they do have nice stuff and the foot wear--I just havent seen a stinker yet.

>>13052382
What Rick do you like?

>>13052388
True that. I couldnt care less if its the real thing or not. As long as it looks good and fits im happy.

>>13052449
>torn & tattered
>high quality
No, it is you who are retarded.

>>13052459
>What Rick do you like?
Lupetto's, level T's, Island Shirts (earlier variants aren't great, the ones from the past 3 seasons are best), Long sleeve tunics, tabard tops, berlin sweats, astaires, cashmere knitwear/mohair knitwear, goose down jackets, detroit jeans, blazers, non-crop brother jackets, etc

>>13052500
I love so much Rick but I just wouldn't or I should say just can't pull it off. I'm self aware enough to know it will look silly on a 5'10 manlet who lifts. Also it doesn't match my personality much although the clothes are beautiful.

I do love Rick footwear and I think the nice thing about it is it's about the only Rick you can actually wear with non Rick fits. Rick clothes are made to go with other Rick clothes, so you kind of have to go full Rick.

I like fleece vests, North Face should make cleaner ones.

>>13052455
Actually I like Diesel jeans better than Corn Mills whatever American heritage jeans

I think vintage Tommy and windbreakers and jeans are all trash sue me 13050805

>>13052430
agreed on anything but the last statement, what's "gay stuff"?

>>13050805
hmm the boots are actually nice looking

>>13052308

>>13052430
Ahaa sperry wearing flyover state faggot trying to psychological analyze a group of anonymous posters. Kill yourself prep is shit.

I think there is a good medium between MFA-tier "muh heritage" dadcore and impractical, ridiculous clothing.

>>13052430
>Mods should remove threads that get off topic

we dont even have mods

>>13053078
I wish we had better janitors
This board doesn't, fortunately, have a lot of bannable shit going on, like cp or raids

all adidas footwear looks like shit

>>13052430
>The hate directed towards preppy fashion stems from insecurity and hatred of wealth, which is ironic, because most of the non-prep fashion on this board is incredibly expensive, to the point of ridiculousness
first, we dont hate preppy fashion, it is what it is. some people just look good in it, some fit that look better, people who eat more, go to the gym more, drink protein shakes are the people who those clothes are made for

if yu are skinny, you don't even fit any of those clothes. it's chicken and egg, if you live a "preppy" lifestyle, you will gravitate to that fashion, and you will just be more of the mainstream culture, you can spend tons on that style or not alot.

because the "Fashion" is just a residual, the /Fit is not Fashion focused, it just comes with the lifestyle. and naturally with more Fit, comes testosterone, and more dominant behaviour, and the insults towards the non Fits. it's just natural. /fitizens view "skinny" Fash as "weak" or lacking "drive"

too bad it's just two different lifestyles. and Fashion lifestyle is not about strength or following mainstream, it's not about "dressing for success", it's about challenging the mainstream, and being ultra creative, and valuing the human form in it's natural state. the extreme of this is the paper thin models, jus tlike the extreme in /fit is massive roided out freaks with huge muscles.

>>13053404
so you can be a fitizen, and have maybe a bit of a wild, creative side, and there is a Designer or Brand _________ just for that market. In the end, Fashion is an Industry, and it's business, but people all need clothes. Fitness is an industry to, but not everyone needs to be fit.

is he dare i say it /ourguy/ ?

no, he's tryhard as fuck, just trying to emulate better youtubers who are authentic like reviewbrah

>>13050805
i have the season 3 boots in black, i think them and the 950’s looks the best. the crepe boots aren’t too bad either desu.

as far as sneakers, the 750’s in black and og grey are nice too imo. the 350’s are god awful tho

>>13053434
I have brown 750s which I think are definitely the most wearable and versatile. Imho the order is

Brown gum
OG Grey white
Grey gum
Black

The blacks I don't know it's certainly not a bad shoe because the 750 is just an awesome silhouette and you can't fuck up all black, but I guess I just feel like it was kind of a lazy drop and doing black for the sake of black. Doesn't really match the rest of the line.

>>13052308
>>13052459
Those qasa boots look fine in person. If you wear full techwear you're going to look like a retard no matter what, but they look great if worn in a dark-comfy style.

>>13053452
yeah i can see where you’re coming from with the black being lazy. personally i like an all black shoe as it fits with what i wear.

not the biggest fan of the grey gums, just something about the grey with the gum sole puts me off the them. much prefer the chocolates over them

>>13050805
350s are overplayed, they need to update the shape of the shoe, or at least make a unique pattern/colorway.

500 is what I'm excited for this year, and more 700 colorways

I'm still surprise that there are no new 750s

>>13053906
750 was from yeezy season 1, thats why.

>>13052388
where can i get fakes/replicas for cheap?

>>13052512
Rick looks great on people who lift.

>>13054303
It's definitely one of the few designers you have left if you bulk up. BUT there's a point where even Rick looks silly if you get too big.

>>13052893
Threads about how someone said they're coming out or "idk how anyone is 100% straight", adrogynous stuff
>>13052969
Nobody likes people like you in real life.
>>13053404
Good post. But I have to add, prep can work for skinny people too, what with all the layers and such in winter and long sleeve tees in summer. I personally see prep as a way for younger people to dress like adults without looking off or drab.
I agree with the critique of skinny fashion too.

Ironic fashion is a stupid trend that should have never been a trend in the first place. Same goes for that that weird fluoro tye dye shit that got popular for a while

Half of this board lets the clothes wear them instead of wear their clothes. Rick is a good example because it gets posted a lot. Yes Rick footwear can be more versatile than his other stuff but I have not seen a lot of good examples of it. Pics of ramones with skinny blue jeans were especially hard to look at

>>13050805
the only way you will ever look professional and be accepted by older people is to dress mostly preppy as a young adult

streetwear, techware, all that stuff is actually retarded and when you're older you'll look back in disgust like scene kids did unless you're rose tinted goggled to hell

>>13054883
This is pretty much why prep is the best fashion out there. It's the look of success, available at incredibly low prices, free from gaudy trends.

>>13053980
r/repsneakers for shoes
r/fashionreps for hypebeast clothes
/r/designerreps for designer accessory/clothes

>>13050805
I still like emo/scene armwarmers

>>13052308
pic related is one of the few rick fits I like. pairing ramones with skinny jeans like>>13052963
looks comical and is a mistake.

>>13050805
I don't care for the yeezy duckboots, nor the 350s. 750's are significantly more interesting but rarely styled well.

>>13052362
rip off brand, worse than FOG and FOG is derivative trash.

>>13052430
prep is rarely discussed because there's not a lot that needs to be discussed, as trad hasn't changed significantly in the past few decades. Also its a reddit boogeyman issue as well.

>your opinions that would most likely be met with ridicule among the esteemed and knowledgeable personages of /fa/.
I like what I wear.

>>13050805
i like to wear really baggy pants but only when i skate

>>13054883
spoken like real respectable member of society! you know your age, so you act like it! you can't look professional unless you're wearing a suit and tie!

>>13050805
I think tommy Hilfiger makes more stylish and quality clothes than Ralph Lauren

>>13052308
>I have not seen one pic of someone making Baskets, Ramones,or even the Mastodons look good
same goes for the shoes you posted
seriously, I would love to see some fits with these that aren't trash but the 5 that I've seen posted are vile, I would seriously reconsider if I were you, there is a reason these are so easy to buy from sales for dirt cheap

>>13052382
>What makes this so unpopular is the fact that I strongly dislike
I wouldn't say I dislike them but they aren't really my style at all so I'm kinda with you there
Same for the more dramatic dropcrotches and the big ass pants
Though there are some sweatpant models, creatch cargos and astaires where I really like the dropcrotch and could see myself wearing them as well

>>13052512
>it's about the only Rick you can actually wear with non Rick fits. Rick clothes are made to go with other Rick clothes, so you kind of have to go full Rick
this is such a silly statement and one of the most common things I read about rick clothes online
I'm just gonna say that you are totally wrong but I understand how people come to this conclusion so easily

>>13056311
Can you show me some nice fits of Rick pieces worn with other stuff. Genuinely curious, thanks.

>>13056332
I don't really have much saved
But most Rick items are very normal at the end of the day, it's easy to get confused in to thinking it's very extreme and over the top brand when the runway styling is so wild and shocking and lot of the people in to the brand like to dress completely in it and in the items that really mess with proportions

>>13056332
>>13056340
But most of his tops in general, jackets, non dropcrotch trousers and shoes I think just fine with lot of things, I guess it could be kinda rare to find those kinda fits though

>>13056341

>>13056341
>>13056343
kek great examples I have to illustrate my point too, rick footwear worn with other shit
I just don't save much inspo fits in general though

>>13056340
>tfw as a manlet you will never be physically able to dress like that
:'(

>>13056379
Depends how much of a "manlet" you are
Most of the manlet talk online is just memes, don't take them too seriously, you might need to pay bit more attention to details and proportions but it's not the kinda game breaker so many people make it out to be

>But most of his tops in general, jackets, non dropcrotch trousers and shoes I think just fine with lot of things
>>13056341
>>13056343

>posts Rick-esque drapey black and white fits

Yes, it is a stretch to say Rick only works with other Rick, but it doesn't really work with anything far beyond his aesthetic. Not that there's anything wrong with that really, but seeing these fit pics you might as well just go full Rick.

Not the guy who asked for fit pics by the way.

>>13056399
>posts Rick-esque drapey black and white fits
Yeah, doesn't contradict my point though
>but it doesn't really work with anything far beyond his aesthetic
Again, most of his things are actually very simple, 'normal' and not as extreme as the styling often might lead you to believe, like I said I'm not much of an inspo collector though so I don't really have anything to illustrate my point.

>>13056399
>>13056401
And while drapey might be something people associate rick a lot with, he has his fair share sharp and 'rigid' items as well, the 'geo' in geobaskets, geotees, etc. refer to 'geometric' and you probably often find the adjective 'architechtural' used when reading articles about rick because that's very much his signature and relevant thing in his work, I'd argue even more so than the flowy things.

>>13056399
>>13056406
So much of his clothing is about angles and straight lines, unnatural things for human body.
Thread getting kinda derailed here

>>13056383
I'm an actual turbomanlet, most rick tops look like dresses on me

>>13052399
so long as you aren't fat, greasy, or a weeb, they're p. great.
only autists put weight on them not actually being japanese
